Easier way to up salary cap - maybe I am dumb but I see the only way of doing this is from gear bags which is already very rare 2. Easier way to get the chlorine tokens - The only way to get them that I see is by completing goals which doesn’t give you much early on 3. Add a an actual tutorial - this game already is used enough and without a real tutorial it’s basically impossible. Once again love the game but these things would make it LEGENDARY. The salary cap one the most. Thanks! **Developer response:** Hello Ben, Thank you for trying out the game! A tip about the budget: all losses count -2,000, C tier wins = + 1,000, B = +2,000, A +4,000 and S +9,000 (these are for dual meets only). So going 7-4 against all c tier teams won’t increase your budget (minimum is 0). You can also cut swimmers to get the scholarship you gave them back. Also, Chlorine Crystals can be obtained through the daily rewards as well. The game absolutely needs a tutorial! There are a lot of mechanics and it can be very hard to lock everything down. Thank you for leaving a review, and feedback is always welcome. Enjoy! ### 5/5 — Knowledge about the sport is rewarded *2026-03-07* At the initiative of the game, you are presented with a challenge to conform to the boundaries of your budget and make the most of it in the recruitment process of an athlete, by which you are creating your own rate to pay them, based on your own good willing judgment, will determine the success of your team as well as the success of your coaching career to be compared to other player’s in this game. Where the factors of luck, persistence, stinginess, technique, and knowledge all come into play as well as all are incredibly balanced in this game We call Swim Coach simulator. ### 5/5 — Inspiring *2026-03-05* I’ve been waiting for a swim team game like this forever, and this truly hits all of the marks! Can’t recommend it enough ### 5/5 — Fun Game *2026-03-04* This game is addicting especially if you have knowledge about the sport of swimming. Would highly recommend as a casual game for swimmers or swim coaches ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2026-03-04, version 1.68* Finally, a good swim game ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-03-03* Favorite game right now. Lots of strategy comes with the recruiting and meet lineups and I can’t wait for more features to come out. ### 5/5 — Best Game ever made *2026-03-03* As a swimmer I’ve always wanted to simulate coaching my team and now I can. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bug *2026-03-28, version 1.68.2* After recruiting it just brakes and inputs the last swimmers info into the rest of the roster spots and i cannot advance. Would love to play ### 3/5 — Good game but really slow with the new update *2026-06-18* I started playing this a while ago but with the new update it has gotten so slow that it’s almost unplayable. It desperately needs to be optimized. If it was it would be 5 stars from me, but in its state right now, this is the absolute best I can give it. **Developer response:** Hey Sammy, Glad to here you're enjoying the game. There definitely is a long way to go, so the feedback for the game in its early stages is crucial. If you have specific bugs you'd like to address or suggestions for the game, please contact us here: https://swimcoachsim.wixsite.com/swim-coach-sim/contact-8 or the email swimcoachsim@gmail.com Make sure you have auto update as well, as there will be a lot of bug fixes and updates to come! Thank you! ### 3/5 — 3 *2026-05-04* I think it’s a 3 because they shouldn’t have made the limit 4 for the super recovery, they should’ve jst increased the price. ### 4/5 — Awesome but freezes all the time *2026-05-16* I’m a swim coach and I genuinely love this game but it’s really irritated with how often it freezes after the mid-season, conference, and national championships. It’s to the point where I can’t even get the 2x coin reward for watching the ad. I hope that that bug gets fixed, eventually, because this game has a lot of potential ### 4/5 — Great game but time consuming *2026-04-04* This game is so much fun. I spent so much time playing this because of how much I enjoy it. Only thing keeping it from 5 stars is the fact how time consuming it is. Please add a feature to generate events like you did with relays. ### 4/5 — Annoying bug *2026-03-14* I love this game, my only issue is that every time I go to nationals during season 4 my whole roster disappears and it doesn’t allow me to put swimmers in events. ### 4/5 — World records and budget *2026-03-09* How do we know what the world records are, also you should add 2000 to your budget each season **Developer response:** Hello Chlorine Addict, Thank you for playing the game, and leaving a review! The world records are the based off of the real life scy world records as of 2025. A tip about the budget: all losses count -2,000, C tier wins = + 1,000, B = +2,000, A +4,000 and S +9,000 (these are for dual meets only). So going 7-4 against all c tier teams won’t increase your budget (minimum is 0). You can also cut swimmers to get the scholarship you gave them back. ### 4/5 — Great game but rough around the edges *2026-03-07* I’m definitely enjoying this game a lot, but there’s a lot of little bugs around the game. I’m looking forward to new content and fixing the little things！ **Developer response:** Hey Sammy, Glad to here you're enjoying the game.

Thank you! ### 5/5 — Amazing Game! *2026-05-30* Super fun game that focuses on simulating the recruitment process and improving your swimmers. Genuinely entertaining and hooking! ### 5/5 — Very fun *2026-04-27* This game is very fun. I only have 2 complaints. One of them is I was a bit disappointed that the player needs to watch an ad to auto lineup, but I understand that the devs need the ad revenue. My only other complaint is that it is very hard to tier up, but Tbf I am not very good at the game and used to spend all my time making lineups, but the new auto lineup update will fix that problem. Other than those complaints it is an amazing game! ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this game *2026-04-20* I’ve been looking for a good swimming game I love the retro bowl style of it I hope to see more updates! ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-04-04* I saw this game on TikTok and it seemed fun so I downloaded it. It’s really addictive and I’ve played my current save for 45 seasons and my team is so good. I love the progression system and also all the control you have over all swimmers. I really like how open the author is to questions and also how he responds to them all on TikTok. Great game 5/5 ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-03-23* I saw this game on TikTok and it seemed fun so I downloaded it.

Great game 5/5 ### 5/5 — 1 swim game *2026-03-18* Amazing game can’t wait to see what’s in store for the future ### 5/5 — Super fun game!! *2026-03-16* this game is actually really fun! It is for sure time consuming to decide who swims what, but despite that it’s still a fun game. It’s definitely a bit of a struggle to figure out who to recruit, how many people, and also how much money to spend/save. I think over time I’ll get better at it. If I had to ask for one thing to be added I would say a mixed league, where you can recruit both men and women. Over all it’s so fun and def a fun game especially for swimmers!!! ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-03-13* I’m really loving the game. This is the best game I played in a while, and it is just really addicting. I have one problem though I don’t know how to use the upgrade tokens ### 5/5 — Upgrade tokens *2026-03-12* I love the game, better then retro bowl for sure, but how do I use the upgrade tokens? ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-03-09* Great game however can be a little tedious to get the coaches credits, so if you misuse your budget it kind of gets to a point where you cycle in and out of the same 7-8 guys every four years. Also with premium I think it prevent you from being able to watch any ands, including the ones to double coins. Those were my biggest things but as a swimmer the immersion on this is incredible really fun **Developer response:** Thanks for the review! Currently the double coins advertisement isn't functioning for any users, and we are working actively on a solution. Coach coins are best earned by winning championship events and meets, and budget by beating good teams at dual meets. Thank you as well for purchasing the Pro, there will be more features to come to that as well!
